‘Home Is’: A Film from Portugal

Being 1/4 Portuguese, I was pleased to see a fellow countryman have a video appear in the Coldwell Banker International Film Festival. This film from Portugal was created by Zé Pedro Abreu and is one of the most beautifully shot videos not only in the film festival, but that you’ll come across in short form content.

In addition to the incredible cinematography, ‘Home Is…’ also boasts possibly the most attractive cast of the set of videos you’ll see in the film festival. The central character’s eyes make Cal Ripken’s look like they’re nothing. But let’s move on…
